I am the old marquis of the Changning Marquis's residence. I have spent my life with a virtuous wife, dutiful children, and everything going smoothly, and always thought my life was complete. Who could have known that, just as my time was running out, I would hear the truth my wife had hidden for sixty years? She said she had never loved me at all, and had even loathed me. If she hadn't needed to pave the way for her brother back home, she would have left with the man she loved long ago. Only then did I learn that after her beloved became a male companion to a princess, he was killed in a rivalry for her favor. Reborn in the year we first met, this time I did as she wished. When she accidentally fell into the water, I kicked the man she loved straight into the lake.
